This text provides the quantitative models necessary for making real and reasonable calculations and it shows how to perform ROI analysis before and after implementing a quality program. The book demonstrates how to collect the appropriate data and easily perform the appropriate ROI analysis. Taking an evidence-based approach, this book supports its methodology with large amounts of data and backs up its positioning with numerous case studies and straightforward return-on-investment calculations. By carefully substantiating arguments, this volume separates itself from other works on ROI.
